Agreed... But the way he said it...:)

I'm just teasing anyways...

But of course, you gotta love guys like my friend Mark... He IS a Munchie...

He uses the Thunderbolt. Why? Because it does a hideous amount of
damage... adn he freely admits it...

I've given up on him...:)

SMG's kick arse. You can't shoot heavy pistols on burst fire or
full automatic. It's not being a munchkin because it keep your arse
alive. Heavy pistols ranges are worse too. The only good thing is the
concealibility factor.

Just thought you guys would like to know that some of my players love to
use tasers. The cat shaman and the elven combat mage whose a tir
tairngire paladin revel in such shock therapy. ;)

[Snip rest of my post]

Quick suggesting Dusty, as I know you're new here... If you can, could you
try to put your replies underneath what you're replying too? And snip out
the rest that's not relevent? if your mailer can do that... i know some
mailers are limited in what they're capable of...

Anyways, the reason why is taht some people pay for mail by Volumn (size),
and keeping extra junk in the posts that's irrelevent will sometimes get
you flamed... Plus it makes reading the mail a LOT easier...

Anyways, just some friendly advice... It'll help avoid the "Snip your damn
posts" messages that you'll recieve, especially on teh longer posts...

Two Comments on this...

A) The Salavette Gaurdian can fire SA/BF, and the Ruger thunderbolt (from
teh Lone Star book) only fires BF.

B) The usefulness of the gun is like the old saying... "It's not teh size
of your gun, but how you use it." I've seen a Behemoth take a wound from a
light from a light pistol, and I've dropped an armored troll with one shot
from a Ruger Warhawk. And I've seen guys with SMG's spray bullets for four
rounds and only wound a guy... and the guy was human, and not wearing
armor. It's all skill, not power...

And as for the joking munchie reference (please don't prove the joke
right:)), the old saying is that Munchkins use whatever does teh most
damage and gives them the most plusses...:)
